That is not something I would ever want to experience.
I wonder how similar this environment is the the SR71 that disintegrated [1]. Luckily the SR71 pilots wore space suits with this happened. Otherwise I dont think he would have survived.
This is the real man of steel.
But yeah, he's gotta be the luckiest person alive right now, being the only one surviving a space launch related accident while airborne.

Water boiling on the tongue sounds less bad than having your arms and legs blown out of socket.
As anyone who did a belly flop from a high place can testify.
Years of experience and training. Thats why he was in that seat in the first place.
>Water boils at lower temperatures as pressure decreases.
Just like pop rocks.
I'm quite certain both experiences on the whole would be terrifying, but as the detail of the saliva boiling on the tongue was singled out to be terrifying on its own, that is what I based my comment on.
In my imagining of what it would feel like to have your saliva boil yet not be under a great amount of heat, I can only imagine it would feel like a mouth full of pop rocks. I don't find that terrifying.
